Browsing through the pics of my handycam, I bumped into this pic of my almost-hole-in-one. It was last november when I played my first matchplay against Christoph. This was the closest I got to a hole in one. My tee shot hit the flagstick, bounced and rolled back 1,5 meters. Sure birdie putt though! Nice memories!
